Unicate may not be a familiar tuning firm, but their tuning package for the 2009 Lamborghini Murcielago will definitely put them on the map. The "Yeniceri Edition" Murcielago was given a distinct look to pay tribute to an elite fighting troop of soldiers from the Ottoman Empire that bear the same name. Apparently the mere mention of the name would "strike fear into the hearts of anyone that heard it." Serious stuff. The fear and panic caused by the Yeniceri has translated into a bold and menacing package for the Murcielago, complete with a matte black exterior paint job, a set of 20" "ConcavTen" wheels with a chrome outer lip and a matte black inner lip, and a new exhaust system that has increased the engine’s output by 20 HP. Wheels for the supercar have been upgraded to 10.5x20 with a full 4 inch outer lip and 285/25 ZR 20 tires on the front and a massive 13.5x21 with a 6 inch outer lip and 375/25 ZR 21 on the rear. The vehicle has also been lowered by one inch to give off an even more fierce look. Full story as well as the press release after the jump. Unicate went on to incorporate LED Daylight driving lights into the front grill under the bumper as well as 5 LED lights underneath each of the side skirts. The engine compartment even gets its own set of LED lights highlighting the intricacies of the Lambo’s engine. For the interior, Unicate is offering carbon fiber speedometer housing, gear paddles, heating-/ radio housing, and a carbon fiber/leather sports steering wheel. Calling it a cross between KnightRider and the BatMobile may seem like an insult, but that’s what it looks like, except for the fact that this Lamborghini Murcielago is sizzling hot and extremely terrifying all at the same time. Unicate have successfully completed their mission of transforming the Lambo into a fierce and unique ride. We have to give them mad props. Press release "Yeniceri Edition" World Record Lamborghini Murcielago from Unicate The exhaust system of the "Yeniceri Edition" has the same effect as it gives out an amazing 120db whilst standing still. The exhaust system has been newly developed using the original tailpipes and increases the performance in the region of 20PS. Cem Altun, CEO and founder of Unicate and the MEC Design Group, said "We wanted to take the wheels to the extremes and wanted to give it a wider wheel on the rear but there aren’t any tires wide enough. It’s great! It drives much better now than when it had the smaller original wheels on, it’s much more sportier now and you have the real feeling of driving a safer sports cars."
7 comments: Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 "Yeniceri Edition" by Unicate Aesthetically, this car is so amazing! I really love how the Lambo combines the luxury and sportiness on this line. The interior is stunning and the performance is great. BTW, Lambo is good on matte color!
I think they have positioned the LED in the wrong way. It’s much better if they have put it in below or above the grille.
If the bride is willing to spring for a $13,000 joyride for her husband then I’d say she was "a keeper". Perhaps she should dump this Gallucci tool and mate with somebody who can drive.
The back end skipped out while I was going around the roundabout ," explained Gallucci and that’s why insurance is $8,000 per day.
Way too much alcantara. Cover the steering wheel and seats with it, fine. The dashboard, though? Not feeling that.
It wont be a proper SV without gutting the drive to the front wheels. Id love to see some RWD Murcia action but like the poster above
M still hoping for a stripped out smaller track ready model.
